After thinking it over for quite a while, I've decided to submit my application for being your apprentice. I'm not sure about how to go with writing this, but I'll give it my best shot!
I've been on Steemit for almost three weeks now, I joined due to the persuasion of a friend. So far, it's not easy but from what I've experienced so far, it's worth. While not everyone can be examples of a good Steemian, I've noticed that in general people are helping each other out and this is why I believe in the growth of Steemit. Not through its popularity but through how the community acts as a whole, and I'm in it for the long haul. As it is, I want to be a useful part of this, to be able to help in its progress and growth in whatever way I can.
To tell the truth, I don't know if I deserve this mentorship. Scrolling through the comments, I saw the dedication and passion of the other applicants, and I admire what they're trying to achieve.
One of my biggest goals here in Steemit is the music and education community.
Music education nowadays is not being given the attention it deserves, it's ignored and often relegated as an extra in education when it can do more, and music is often just seen as entertainment rather than something that can help people it its own ways.
I want to be able to share music and things about it in a way that would capture the attention of people, to raise the awareness of the importance of music and its education. I want to help in creating a community of music educators and musicians who will support and learn from each other, building a network that can help in the cause of music education in our current society. And if I already get a stable number of connections, I'd like to invite musicians who would be interested to join Steemit (especially from Facebook, there's a large amount of supporters of music education over there, as well as musicians). Hopefully, this can be an asset in helping the music community of Steemit grow, and also educate people about music.
Right now, it just seems like a dream, but I want to do my best in trying to fulfill it, meaning that I need to learn more on the ins and outs of blogging, to be able to catch the attention of people so that they can learn more about what I'm sharing, and also so I could learn from them.
(I also write occasionally about books, places, and food).
